I feel like this is being made out to be a much bigger deal than it is, both by the (rather hyperbolic) article and in general. If you want to go back, go back. If you don't, then don't. If you want a mixed model do that. Be you an employer or employee. You may need to change jobs/staff to get what you want. That's life. That always has been.
